About this listen

Monk's house is being fumigated, and he has nowhere to go. Fortunately, his assistant Natalie and her daughter are kind enough to welcome him into their home. Unfortunately, their home is not quite up to Monk's standards of cleanliness and order. But while Monk attempts to arrange his surroundings just so, something else needs to be put straight. The death of a dog at the local firehouse - on the same night as a fatal house fire - has led Monk into a puzzling mystery. And much to his horror, he's going to have to dig through a lot of dirt to find the answer.©2006 Universal Studios Licensing (P)2009 BBC Audio Cozy Fiction Movie, TV & Video Game Tie-Ins Mystery Police Procedural Suspense Tie-in Witty

Captures the spirit of the TV show. Lots of fun.

I wish I would have known about this series sooner. I'm on the final book of the series, and each reads like a standalone episode of the show. The book does a good job laying out Monk's idiosyncrasies, his relationship with the world, Natalie and Stottlemeyer, against a backdrop of murder and crime. I'm glad I found this series, and was even more excited they were free listens!

Mr. Monk gets a good review.

The story and book are great but the lack of narrative difference of voices made it a little hard to listen to still, a solid four stars.

Welcome back, Mr. Monk.

I've missed Mr Monk, his friends, and their mysteries for far too long. what a pleasure to discover these audio mysteries. I look forward to reading or listening to the rest of the books and Hope they are as well written and satisfying as this one. wonderful job by Arthur Lee Goldberg and narrator Laura Hicks.

Light and Fun Listen

I like to alternate between a serious book and a light, "fluffy" book. This fit the second category perfectly. I found it surprisingly funny. I giggled out loud several times listening to this book in public, which I haven't done since the last David Sedaris book. It was also quite touching in some parts, much like the TV show. Overall a very satisfying listening experience. I will be buying more in this series.

Mr. Monk Goes to the Firehouse

I had a lot of fun listening to this book. I loved the Monk tv series and stumbled onto this book while looking through the Audible Plus Catalog.
